Due to Covid, please note that some cattle drives have been cancelled. So, if you are planning to attend one, check with the local tourism board to verify that it will take place. Don't forget to wear a KN95 or N95 mask to protect yourself and others.

Interesting. I imagine the community events are cancelled, but the cows still need to be shifted. Wouldn't it be fun to encounter a drive on the fly, as it were?

I would have thought that most of the flies would be on and around the cows...

Haha, that would be an experience - the fly's view. Or maybe not....

Well, I guess the cows can descend on any day convenient for the farmers. So, it will be impossible to time it.
